From this week to the end of June we will be following up throughout the Community on our fundraiser towards the redevelopment of our Main Pitch. We are seeking Persons to join our "Friends" Scheme donating €5 per week for a 4 Year Period. The Club are committed to providing a top class Playing pitch for our Boys and Girls, Footballers and Hurlers and also to provide an 800 metre walking track around the Grounds for our whole Community to enjoy. We hope the whole Community in the Club Catchment area can continue to support our efforts.
